Northern Essex to host college counseling

Northern Essex Community College will once again host the New England Association of College Admission Counseling Fair from 2 to 4 p.m. next Sunday in the Sports and Fitness Center on the Haverhill campus, 100 Elliott St. Approximately 150 colleges and universities will participate in this year’s fair. The event, which is free and open to the public, will be cohosted by the Greater Newburyport College Night Association, consisting of the school districts of Amesbury, Georgetown, Newburyport, and the Pentucket and Triton regional districts. “We are encouraging anyone who is considering college to attend,” said Jill Palermo, administrative assistant for Northern Essex Enrollment Services. “It’s a great way to connect with college admissions counselors and learn more about individual colleges.” For a list of colleges and universities that are scheduled to participate visit www.necc.mass.edu/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/NEACAC-College-Fair.pdf.
